I have been interest in family history most my life, even before I knew the word, "genealogy." After retiring from an IT career, I started doing genealogy full time. I have helped several clients, but mostly concentrate on my own families.

I have published books on the Aldahl, Aschbrenner, Christianson, Estes, Fawcett, Krueger, McCall, Meyer, Miller, Phillips, Stemson, and Woods families. I was the proud winner of the 2023 Wisconsin Historical Society Genealogy Book Award for my book on the Aschbrenner family. In addition to my books, you can find many biographies and stories of our ancestors on my website at familyPastExpert.com.

I appreciate the hard work of all the Find A Grave volunteers and consider this a valuable resource for genealogy research.

If I can assist you in any way, feel free to contact me.
